With the sharp increase in the number of people testing positive for Covid, should we be afraid of this rebound? This week the Ministry of Health will call the remobilization against the new Omicron variant. Some are calling for the return of barrier gestures.
In this pharmacy in Dijon (Golden Coast)more and more of them are getting tested for Covid-19. And half of those cases are positive. In a few days, the number of daily contaminations in France went from 20,000 to 50,000. It is in Martinique, Guadeloupe, Corrèze and Île-de-France that the incidence rate is the highest. “We can clearly speak of an epidemic recovery at the moment. We can even speak of a new wave”estimates the Pr Anthony Flahaultepidemiologist and professor of public health at the University of Geneva.
“We know that some people are now quite far from their last doses of vaccine, so we can ask ourselves the question, if we are old or frail, if we need to repeat a dose now. Most likely”believes Damien Mascretdoctor and journalist at France Télévisions. According to Dr Emmanuel Debosswe must think about putting back certain measures, at least in public transport.
